The world

A cat who suffers from anxiety and who hasn’t given up has overcome his fears and managed to catch a bird after two years of working on himself and pushing his boundaries. He celebrated this meaningful victory by presenting his treasure to us.

Few days ago I received a lovely comment from inamessyworld whose posts always put a smile on my face- they make me think about the existence and life happenings which can be daunting but as we all know it’s always about the attitude thefore the worst outcomes can be approach with a sense of humour !!! inamessyworld nominated me for the Mystery blogger Award 😊 The award was originally created by okotornigmasblog whose blog touches the subject of life in the most meaningful way.

I’ve been given 5 questions to answer :

1. If the world was going to end, how would you react and spend your last day?

I would cuddle with my partner, play Gears of War and try to tame our cat 😅

2. What did you get up to today?

We’ve just move house so it’s been pretty much the same everyday- unpacking, arranging and sorting….

3.What are your goals at the minute?

I have one goal at the minute: To conquer the mayhem in our new house.

4. Your favourite memory?

The first date at the coffee shop followed by the gig of the mighty Lanterns on the Lake with my partner.

Bonnie says- ‘Be proud of who you are – you great & complicated human creature. Don’t ever let anyone to patronize you or disrespect you. If someone does it to you try your best to remove yourself from the toxic interaction. Don’t suffer in silence. Don’t let your thoughts to devour your healthy mind. Share your feelings and never dwell on your problems alone!!!’

It’s sad to see that people choose wrong paths due to bad life experiences. I have witnessed transformations into selfish , self- centred creatures multiple times. It’s has made me wonder why does it occur so often.

The thought which comes first in to my mind is ‘protection’. Protection from the world, negative people and situations which caused worries and troubles in the past. It gives people a sense of control over their fate and the Universe which is quite helpful because it creates space for healing. The problem arises when a person who has healed rejects admirable values they were known to live by. The rejection of nobility is the easiest option but it disagrees with the inner- self which deep down sounds the alarm of the conflict. The alarm is heard above the surface. Nothing is done about it- the ignorance jumps into place causing even more confusion. Time goes by and the affected individual either changes themselves revealing their true colours or remains in the blisfull false ignorance.

Feelings are one of the most important things in life. They help us to make the judgment by being the communicator between the conscience, empathy and logical thinking.

Greeting negative , neutral and positive feelings with open arms allows us to analyse various life situations more objectively making us successful. Many of us try to mute or disregard feelings by following the rational thinking pattern in order to protect ourselves. I could compare it to eating the same type of food for lunch everyday and rejecting any other meal because even though it’s not satisfying enough it’s still filling – I can easily name it ‘a safe option’.

What if we venture out and actually try something unexpectedly different. Would it make us happier or more miserable? We won’t know unless we try! I do believe the key to happiness is a healthy balance made of miscellaneous ingredients which stimulate our existence. Think about it 😊
